When the camera is panned, vibration reduction applies

only to motion that is not part of the pan (if the camera is

panned horizontally, for example, vibration reduction will

be applied only to vertical shake), making it much easier to

pan the camera smoothly in a wide arc.

Do not turn the camera off or remove the lens while

vibration reduction is in effect. If power to the lens is cut

while vibration reduction is on, the lens may rattle when

shaken. This is not a malfunction, and can be corrected by

reattaching the lens and turning the camera on.

If the camera is equipped with a built‑in flash, vibration

reduction will be disabled while the flash charges.

Slide the vibration reduction switch to OFF for long time‑

exposures.

Turn vibration reduction off when the camera is securely

mounted on a tripod, but leave it on if the tripod head is

not secured or when using a monopod.

The Lens Hood

The lens hoods protect the lens and block stray light that

would otherwise cause flare or ghosting.

Align the lens hood lock mark (—)

with the lens hood mounting mark

() on the lens (e).

When attaching or removing the hood, hold it near the

symbol on its base and avoid gripping it too tightly.

Vignetting may occur if the hood is not correctly attached.
The hood can be reversed and mounted on the lens when

not in use. When the hood is reversed, it can be attached and

removed by rotating it while holding it near the lock mark

(—).
